There are still a number of issues with ldap authorization organic groups. No commits related to ldap authorization are in this release. See http://drupal.org/node/1845358
7.x-2.0 Branch is preferred over 7.x-1.0 with the exception of organic groups authorization which is not ready yet. Remember to run update.php before migrating from 7.x-1.x. You must also make some manual configuration changes, so PLEASE read through the configuration/admin forms. Most of the improvements in the 7.x-2.0 branch are related to groups, nested group, Drupal user provisioning, and test coverage.
No expected feature changes or bug fixes expected for 7.x-1.x-beta12 since main focus is on 7.x-2.x branch. This release is not recommended for new sites since it has known bugs and the 7.x-2.x branch is nearing the beta process. If you install the 7.x-1.x branch use 7.x-1.x-dev. Subscribe to #1115704: Drupal 7 Status Updates for current status.
There have been a number of bug fixes since beta10 on May 14th, so I'm pushing out a beta 11. There are still some issues that I feel are either not resolved or not need confirmation. If anyone can confirm or deny these bugs, that would be great.
Getting close to a release candidate. Wanted to get another beta out before I move some of the delayed 2.0 branch into 1.0. To follow the ldap module, please subscribe to http://drupal.org/node/1115704. Fixes are in the changelog file.
This is a fairly stable version of ldap for drupal 7. Find the beta version that works for you and wait for a 7.x-2.0 beta or release candidate. There will be no heavy development on the 1.0 branch; only bug fixes and fixes that are easily applied to both 1.0 and 2.0 branches.
This is likely the last release of the 7.x-1.0 branch. In the 7.x-2.0 branch ldap data will be attached to the user entity to make integration with other modules and provisioning easier. The 2.0 branch has a mid May deadline. I'm releasing it as a beta6 because there have been a number of patches since beta5.
Largest remaining tasks are support for nested groups, automated upgrade from 6.x module, a variety of identity/mapping issues, documentation, and better simpletest coverage. If beta means feature complete, consider this an alpha. See http://drupal.org/node/1115704#comment-5045030 finished.
Release contains a number of bug fixes, see changelog.txt. LDAP Feeds, LDAP Query, and LDAP Views are all in much better shape.
==================
7.x-1.0-beta3
==================
Issue #1209576 thekevinday: install shows error of undefined constant fixed
Added simpletests for drupal authentication and ldap authorization, and the following 2 issues (#1206146, #1213228)
filtered on array_unique for drupal role mapping to avoid redundant role names
Issue #1206146 danharper (and likely several other issues): allow mapping of cn or other first attribute instead of dn in ldap authorization and check for long drupal role names.
==================
7.x-1.0-beta2
==================
Issue #1206500 by justintime: applied patch to allow exporting bind password if encryption enabled
Issue #1201414 by justintime: applied very big exportables patch http://drupal.org/node/1201414#comment-4672616 successfully
Added warnings when drupal 6 ldapauth table is found warning of manual upgrade process.
Issue #1201414 by justintime: to improve exportables, renamed ldap_servers.type to ldap_server.ldap_type for older versions of ctools. Also added export type string.
Issue #1174332 by endiku: error thrown when trying to add the same drupal role twice. Added simpletest and applied array_unique().
Issue #1192356 by bfroehle: ldap_servers_get_servers returning null instead of empty array. 1192356-Fix-warnings-when-iterating-through-en.patch
Issue #1030404 by ankur: Fixed issue with ldap authentication with multiple servers. 1030404 comment #6
Simpletests by johnbarclay: fixed fake ldap server arrays for simpletests to work with #1030404 patch.
Issue #1170034 by pumpkinkid: Added functionality for limiting who can authenticate based on whether ldap authorizations exist. U.I. was already in, just not functionality.
Fixed whitelist php eval code by johnbarclay. Did not check for php.module enabled, documentation showed wrong variables and return values.
Decided it was time for a beta since simpletest coverage was pretty far along. Feeds, profile, and provision modules are not beta quality, but ldap authentication, ldap authorization, and ldap servers are. I believe we will be ready for release candidates when simpletest coverage and documentation are complete (and no bugs).
This release has more bugs than unstable 5. I would stick with unstable 5 for trying out the module. If you would like to test unstable 6, I would hold off as I have a handful of bugs already and an unstable 7 will be more worth while.
Hope to get to these by the 18th of April.
Ldap Authentication and Ldap Servers are feature complete. Testing and bug
fixes are needed to move it toward a relase candidate.
Ldap Authorization got a good cleanup and restructuring, but
is wholly untested. I would not use this version of ldap authorization or expect it to work;
but I am ready for bug reports and patches as the rewrite is done.
This version is under active development and should not be used in production. It is the recommended version for new installs and development. Existing sites with ldap 7.x-1.x module functioning correctly should wait until 7.x-2.x release candidates to updgrade. Follow progress of this by subscribing to #1115704: Drupal 7 Status Updates.
- install instructions: disable and uninstall previous ldap modules. make sure tables are removed.
------------------
- main focus of unstable 5 is ldap_authentication including finishing out features, improving usability,
fixing bugs, documentation and setting up tests. ldap_authorization still needs features to be
finished out, documentation and usability improvements, and a set of tests.
- ldap_authentication: reordered authentication validation related to issue #1022362
- ldap_authentication: added test grid for ldap_authentication testing: http://drupal.org/node/1053818
- ldap_authentication: added typical authentication configurations: http://drupal.org/node/1053748
- ldap_help: added "status" and "issue reporting" tabs to improve testing and bug reporting
- ldap_authentication: removed option to allow ldap users to change, have separate drupal email. this feature needs more work if desired at all.
- ldap_authentication: added configurable help link for ldap password resetting.
- ldap_authentication: made more content themeable, especially where localized ldap user help may be a factor
- ldap_authentication: #807416 finished and tested white lists
- ldap_authentication: clarified and tested rules for existing drupal account conflicts. Desired behavior is in
tests (ldap_authentication.tests.txt).
- #1018968, #1016284 "ldap_authorization_example" text fixed
- added check for uid==1 in ldap to make sure that uid=1 is not using ldap authentication
- #1017578, #1005358 mixed mode authentication failed for user 1 fixed.
- #1017282 uninitialized array gives warning. I'd like to get rid of all these types of warnings.
- #807420 initial exportables/features code added. needs testing. not sure if ldap_servers_encrypt_key variable should be exportable
- starter working with coder module cleanup (spacing, translation, etc)
This is a development snapshot of head. It is for development of ldap_authorization and ldap_authentication until ldap_api is functional. In this snapshot, ldap_server replaces the functionality of ldap_api. Depending on the timeline of ldap api, we may use 7.x-2.x branch for ldap with ldap api.
This is snapshot is intended for developers, documentation writers, and testers. It is not intended to be anything close to a production version. It has been developed against Drupal 7 RC3.
7.x-1.x-dev will have bug fixes when patches are submitted and tested. Otherwise it is being abandoned in favor of the 7.x-2.x branch. Only use the 7.x-1.x branch if you are working with an existing site that its functional on. Subscribe to #1115704: Drupal 7 Status Updates to keep up with LDAP project status.
